- Every year since time immemorial, Bibliography Room has printed a Christmas card for the Massey College community. Knee deep in Toronto's second lockdown, the tradition yet continues.
The Adana Five-Three was originally marketed as a letterpress for children and hobbyists. Today, its little bed is great (if, a little finnicky) for a project of this size. Even better for shelter-in-place orders, curfews, and the like. Stay safe out there, kiddos.

Thank you for sharing this!
Hint: the press should be inked up before you place the forme onto the press. By doing it the way shown in the video, the uneven blobbiness of the unrolled-out ink goes onto the forme and results in uneven inking.
Small Minerva.
Great video, just obtained a HS2 6x4 and this has been very helpful!
Glad it helped!
Hi! I've just been given a 5x3 Adana model by my grandad and wish to get it up and running again. Is there any way of speaking to you guys about the parts I need and the sizes etc? It would be massively appreciated :) I know I need rollers and the metal rectangle which keeps all the type together... Thanks.
@finnscott5757.
The "metal rectangle" as you call it, is called a "chase". lol.
A little late to the part - great video, will help me with my Adana as well.
May I ask where you got that sweet small type cabinet? :)
Thanks!
this video was filmed by a previous employee in his home. I don't know where the cabinet is from. I'm glad the content was useful. Best of luck with the Adana!
Hi, does it also has deep impression?
It can, depending on how much packing you use
@@TheRobertsonDaviesLibrary Thank you! I’m planning to buy this model. :)
@@melloncollievintage833 Hope you have fun!!! It's a very rewarding experience
Terrible print quality. This is the trouble when using loose-type; they all wear out at varying degrees.
